mixture of me encouraging, and initiating on some days, and on others , the
kids initiate. Some days seem slower, then there are days, like yesterday,
where my oldest son was brimming with ideas. He was building tunnels and

wanted to make and play with playdough, etc...So, for us, each day can be a
little different from the day before, but it works for us. ~Karen
